Dangerous by Trout Fishing In America Lyrics

[Chorus]
Dangerous: thunder and lightnin'
Dangerous: mid-day sun
Dangerous: life can be frightenin'
Dangerous, dangerous!

Dangerous: sayin' “I love you”
Dangerous: three little words
Dangerous: boulders above you
Dangerous, dangerous!

[Verse]
The bigger ya get
The harder you fall
It may be trite but true

Now there’s a tag every blessing
To remind us of a curse
The things that make life better
Might just as well make it worse
[Chorus]
Dangerous: food that you eat and
Dangerous: pills you take
Dangerous: lyin’ an' cheatin’
Dangerous, dangerous!

[Bridge]
There’s a story every dog should know
Every educated dog will tell you so
There was a pit bull named Brutus
Who chased automobiles
Sometimes they’d run over his head
I can’t imagine how that feels
But he finally learned his lesson
About danger in the end
If a car would ever hit him
He’d never chase that particular car again

[Chorus]
Dangerous: radial tires
Dangerous: four wheel drive
Dangerous: near-sighted drivers
Dangerous!

[Interlude]
Ba da ba ba da da
Ba da ba ba da da
Ba da ba ba da da
Ba da ba ba da da
Ba da da ba da ba ba ba
Ba da da ba da ba ba
Ba da da ba da ba ba ba
Ba da da ba da ba ba

Ba da da ba da ba ba ba
Ba da da ba da ba ba
Ba da da ba da ba ba ba ba ba ba

[Chorus]
Dangerous: cats and canaries
Dangerous: fools with guns
Dangerous: life can be scary
Dangerous, dangerous!

Dangerous: cash in the sock drawer
Dangerous: stocks and bonds
Dangerous: glitter and glamour
Dangerous, dangerous!

[Verse]
The older I get
The dumber I feel
And it’s causing me concern
I haven’t quit chasin’
Automobiles
Even ones that hit me
New tricks are hard for old dogs to learn
[Outro]
Dangerous
Dangerous (Yeah)
Dangerous
